Caridad is a nonprofit organization working to address unsheltered homelessness by providing modest, dignified housing and supportive services. Established in 2010, its roots trace to a sock-and-underwear drive in San Diego, and it now operates from Las Vegas, Nevada, with a mission to humanize the homeless. The organization delivers case management to its homeless clients through a customer service–oriented, concierge approach aimed at reintegration into the community. It also runs Caridad Gardens, using a Freight Farm, a shipping-container greenhouse sponsored by Fergusons' Downtown and Market in the Alley, to grow fresh produce and create jobs for formerly homeless clients from US Vets, supporting food access and local development. Caridad positions itself within the nonprofit sector by combining housing with case management and urban agriculture as a pathway to stability for homeless individuals and Veterans. Its stated values include transparency, trust, respect, and adaptability, guiding its community-oriented work from its Las Vegas base.
